  • Opening a Trapdoor in Your Soul: Tim O’Brien’s Pursuit of a True War Story

    Creator:
    Gallagher, Molly J.
    Abstract:
    This thesis project explores Tim O’Brien’s use of fiction to go beyond simply recounting an experience in the Vietnam War to write a true war story through examination of his writing, interviews, and their impact on me as a reader. I dissect three of O’Brien’s fictional narratives for their similarities...

  • Effects of Estrogen Receptor Blockade on Skeletal Response to Alcohol in Ovariectomized Rats

    Creator:
    Wagner, Lindsay A.
    Abstract:
    Heavy alcohol consumption reduces peak bone mass in growing rodents and can lead to bone loss in both adult rats and humans. In contrast, moderate alcohol consumption appears to have a bone sparing effect in post-menopausal women. Alcohol has been reported to increase aromatase activity and influence estrogen receptor (ER)...

  • Priority asset utilization in parallel replacement analysis

    Creator:
    Wagner, Tristan John
    Abstract:
    Two policies for allocating individual assets from a pool of assets to incoming requests were contrasted within the context of replacement analysis. Assets within a pool are considered similar in the service they provide, but may differ in age and cumulative usage. The two policies considered for allocating assets to...

  • Radioactive Isotope Matching for an Embedded System

    Creator:
    Wagner, Samuel T.
    Abstract:
    The goal of this project is to create a lightweight radioactive isotope identification program for an embedded system using the C programming language to perform isotope matching on a subset of isotopes. First, the physics behind radioactive spectra and their key features are explained. Next, the characteristics of the spectra...

  • Efficiency of bioswales in positively effecting storm water quality

    Creator:
    Grenz, Natalie S.
    Abstract:
    Because of the increased need for sustainable construction in an ever urbanizing culture, new sustainable drainage systems are being developed and implemented. Bioswales are becoming an increasingly popular form of sustainable urban drainage used for parking lots and subdivisions. But little is known regarding the effectiveness of bioswales in really...

  • Creation of At This Point, an undergraduate-focused science podcast

    Creator:
    Puoci, Victor (Tori) M.
    Abstract:
    At This Point, an undergraduate-focused science podcast, works to expand the accessibility of science by exploring topics that, at this point, may seem too complex to understand. This thesis project describes the process of creating At This Point and demonstrates how the podcast fulfills the criteria of effective science communication....

  • Volume minimized generalized cross entropy for learning with label noise

    Creator:
    Wolnick, Daniel
    Abstract:
    The types and rates of label noise in real-world data sets present a challenge to machine learning projects. In this thesis, we propose a novel approach to address this issue. Our method combines a noise modelling technique for correcting label noise across the entire data set with a robust loss...

  • Implementation of Distributed Localized Communications

    Creator:
    Snyder, Thomas
    Abstract:
    Artificial collectives are useful for accomplishing tasks that require teamwork from multiple simple robots. Multiple robot and collective testbeds have been developed, yet none stay committed to leverage the local interactions, group size, and imperfect information assumptions that strengthen biological collectives. A review of the collective and multiple robot literature,...

  • Sperm acrosome associated 3 protein expression and antigenicity in horses

    Creator:
    Cozzi, Brynley C.
    Abstract:
    Sperm acrosome associated 3 protein (SPACA3) is a unique, intra-acrosomal, conventional-type lysozyme-like protein of mammalian spermatozoa. SPACA3 is present in all stages of ovarian follicles and is localized to granulosa cells and ooplasma in humans, mice, cows, dogs, and cats. The objective of this study was to determine if equine...
